The ball joints move pretty easily, similar to those mini tripods for cameras. I was a little nervous about damaging the vinyl with the armature, but with plenty of the poly fill it doesn't touch it so it's fine. My standing toddler has armature in her too. Thanks for coming to see Mary.
It is fun to know how to take our dolls apart and fix them the way we like them. I do not like armatures, but I don't have a toddler anyway. Thank you Yvonne!
Hello Yvonne, I hope you will see this comment! I recently got a reborn doll kit that has 3/4 arms and straight full legs, the body that your Hailey doll kit has in this video is exactly what I need to use for my doll kit as I also want to use an armature as the doll is going to be quite heavy and I am sure that the weight will affect the ability for the doll to stand up without an armature. So, please could you kindly let me know where you got the cloth body from? If you didn't buy it or if you aren't sure, no worries! I will keep looking for one but that one looks like it would be perfect for my doll project 😍 Thanks 😊
Thank you sweetheart I've got a June three-year-old and I wanted to see how to do this God bless you sweetie I love you so very much hugs and kisses coming your way XOXO!
Wonderful...I have never seen the Armature and or how to add to your reborn. Thank you for sharing!! See we learn something new...every day!! Bless up!!
Cool! I didn't know there was such a thing as armatures for vinyl dolls. I also didn't know what armatures actually looked like, either. Thanked for showing us!
There's different types of armatures, some are just wire, and look like bent coat hangers. They work very similar, used for smaller dolls. Glad you like to know about armatures.
Thanks Suzanne, I was having some issues with dressing Tess, her large size and floppiness made it very difficult. Early on when I got her I wanted a way to pose her for photos, it was hard as her limbs would fall. Much easier now. They have smaller armatures, I wouldn't be surprised with the newer sculpts that some artist will use them. Great for photo shoots, takes less time for set ups.
Hi Yvonne, thank you for this video! I have a bonnie by linda murray but she has jointed limbs (full arms and 3/4 legs) how do I use an armature with a jointed body?
Thanks, it had been hard for me to dress Tess' or pose her for videos/photos. She refuses to stay in one spot and like to slide down. Makes it easier to dress and pose.
You're welcome. Yes, it can. I have a smaller reborn with armature in his arms and another toddler with armature. I really did it, as it was hard changing her clothes, she was so floppy also for photos, I get it her in a pose and her arm would drop, so much easier now.
HAVINGUON it has been a long time and so missed it miss all of you..yes I have been so sick caught the crud going around and I have lung problems as you know and it's just never good..am better now and hoping to get a video done soon, love and hugs!!💞💞
That was really interesting, Yvonne. I never would’ve thought to put armatures into a vinyl doll. You made it look easy, but all the emptying and reassembling would have taken a fair bit of time and fiddle, I think. xx
I've been thinking of getting some sort of armature for my Natalie Blick Nicole, she is 40 inches tall but I'm thinking just in her arms and legs since she's jointed. Any pointers? It would make it so much easier to cuddle and pose her with some sort of armature.
The armature has to be able to feed through the opening of the limbs. I don't know anything about jointed limbs as long as there is clearance to feed the armature through an opening all the way it will work.
@@havinguon7597 awesome, now the problem is finding this miracle armature. I considered buying a second body for her and take out the joints, and sew it as a one piece body. But I worry about finding the armature.
Hello friend thx for ur video I have a question I fall down on top of my toddler betty she has armatures but now she can't standby herself or keep her head straight how can I fix her!plz help!:'(
It doesn't pop apart, I guess that's what you're getting at. Do want to make sure that the armature is long enough that it stays in place in the limbs and not creep back. I hope that helps.
I heat up the armature joints in order to pop them back together. The plastic is very stiff when cold but when heated it's softer. Can hold end joints over open flame (not too close) of the stove to heat them or use a heat gun maybe a hair dryer although I never tried with a hair dryer.
You are very brave. I have order one of those and end up selling it back for not have the energy to open my doll and re do it. It’s that the standing Tibby kit body
Sorry, I'm not next door I'd help you with that. It isn't that difficult. Putting the armature into the body slip was very much like dressing a hanger.
Thank you so much !!!! I bought a doll that the armature was removed and i really think it would have been better if she kept it. Well actually 2 of them and they r just tooooo floppy for me. So i really want to put the armature back !!! But I didnt know we could buy those !!!! Where do u get them ?

I've seen these on reborn supply sites and always wondered exactly how they worked. Thanks for showing us.

Great info and I love that you did a demonstration of everything👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
So happy you liked it.
Thank you for a great how-to demonstration, Yvonne. Doing that addition for Tess was a very good idea! xxx
It is fun to know how to take our dolls apart and fix them the way we like them. I do not like armatures, but I don't have a toddler anyway. Thank you Yvonne!
This was fascinating I didn't even know it was a thing, great idea! ❤️ xx
Thanks Debbie, yes makes it easier to dress her too.

Wow I have never even seen that setup before. That is such a cool addition. I can't wait to try it out on one of my babies. Thanks for sharing .
Really makes it easier to pose a Reborn toddler.
Wonderful...I have never seen the Armature and or how to add to your reborn. Thank you for sharing!! See we learn something new...every day!! Bless up!!
You're welcome. Yes, my Nanook has armature in his arms.
Very educational, Tess looks great. Thanks for sharing😊
😲 wow! I loved this! What a fantastic demonstration!
YAY! Glad you liked it. Tess is easier to manage now.
Is it 1/2" or 1/4" armature? Great video btw
Cool! I didn't know there was such a thing as armatures for vinyl dolls. I also didn't know what armatures actually looked like, either. Thanked for showing us!

Cool I would never thought of using an armature to a reborn. I have heard of them in silicone babies. Have a great week
That’s brilliant I didn’t know about that at all , very helpful Yvonne 🤗

Fascinating, thank you for doing this video. I now have a reference for putting an armature in a toddler doll.😃❤️
You're welcome, really has made a difference, she's less floppy.
Wow thank you for showing us. I never thought about doing that but a great idea. Hugs
Maybe down the line, when there's a toddler in your collection.
Thanks for sharing
Very awesome yvonne I love in the crib keep doing it I love to know ...
Thanks so much Connie for your encouragement. Means a lot!
Hi! Do you need to put armature into the doll's head? And.. would it make a doll to stand up if it's had straight legs? Thank you!
Hi Yvonne, thank you for this video! I have a bonnie by linda murray but she has jointed limbs (full arms and 3/4 legs) how do I use an armature with a jointed body?
Thank you so much for showing us this. I found it very interesting. X
Thanks, it had been hard for me to dress Tess' or pose her for videos/photos. She refuses to stay in one spot and like to slide down. Makes it easier to dress and pose.
This was so awesome,i enjoyed😀
Thanks.
Very interesting. 😀
Thanks, really made it easier to pose her. Her limbs were so heavy before.
This was awesome to see Yvonne!
Thanks Liz. It was a whim to share, glad I did.
Really appreciate instructional videos. Thank you so very much. Didn't know that this could be done
You're welcome. Yes, it can. I have a smaller reborn with armature in his arms and another toddler with armature. I really did it, as it was hard changing her clothes, she was so floppy also for photos, I get it her in a pose and her arm would drop, so much easier now.
Hi Yvonne. I use to wonder how the armature was put in the reborns. Thank you for sharing this video about it. Many blessings!!
Jewel Lee and Nanook have armature in them when I got them. I really like posing them. Thanks for coming to see.
Where do you get the armature? That would be helpful information! Good job!
Macpherson's arts and crafts.
Very nice I have some of those posable jointed skeleton things to.
I’m going to try and make my own armature from wire for the 3 year old June. Cross your fingers for me. Lol.
Oh my goodness! Thanks for sharing! Lea
You're welcome.
Hi Thanks for your video, where would I find the armature for this kit....
Wow, thank you so much for sharing my sweet friend love it, big hugs..oh, have a blessed weekend!!💞😊💐
You're so welcome Tammie. It's been a while since you posted a video. Hope you're okay.
HAVINGUON it has been a long time and so missed it miss all of you..yes I have been so sick caught the crud going around and I have lung problems as you know and it's just never good..am better now and hoping to get a video done soon, love and hugs!!💞💞
So sorry to hear, just want you to take care of yourself.
That was really interesting, Yvonne. I never would’ve thought to put armatures into a vinyl doll. You made it look easy, but all the emptying and reassembling would have taken a fair bit of time and fiddle, I think. xx
So glad I did though, finding out she was leaking. Even inside her weight bags were too. She all fixed up now.
Thank you so much. I was wondering how to install those and you have the only video for that.
You're so welcome, thanks for watching.
Thanks! I’m glad to know this because I didn’t think of it before! :D
Really helps with posing and makes toddler size dolls more manageable.
HAVINGUON definitely!
How cool!!!!!! Thanks for showing this. Where did you get the armature at?
I had found it a while back, don't remember. But did some more searching since and found that Dolls by Sandie carries armatures in different sizes.
Thank you for this and she's a beautiful doll.
Thanks and you're welcome Linda. Due to Tess' size it was a challenge to change and dress her, now it's easier.
I've been thinking of getting some sort of armature for my Natalie Blick Nicole, she is 40 inches tall but I'm thinking just in her arms and legs since she's jointed. Any pointers? It would make it so much easier to cuddle and pose her with some sort of armature.

That's great its really nice to pose their arms and legs sometimes xox
Oh yes, often in videos, I get her all set, and her arm would fall, now she can hold a pose.
where can I find the cloth slip and the ball joints? please help me im making a different kinda doll for halloween and need your help
wow how cool ...thank you for sharing with us
You're welcome, I enjoy doing a little improvement surgery on my Reborns now and then.
Hello friend thx for ur video I have a question I fall down on top of my toddler betty she has armatures but now she can't standby herself or keep her head straight how can I fix her!plz help!:'(
What size armature did you buy to fit this doll ? I am making a 24 inch doll and I am trying to figure out what size to buy!
They sell different sizes of armatures. I did however put to sets of armatures together to get the size that I needed.
Hey there where did you find this body for her ? Or would you know where I can get one made
The body is available by Bountiful Baby, armature from Dolls by Sandie, I hope that helps.
Thank you! I'm going to get an armature for my Katie Marie❤️
Very interesting watched the whole thing.
Yes, it's unique, but worth doing. Congrats on your new little one!
How well does that armature hold its self up? I hope that makes sense. I’ve been trying to find a new armature to use for art dolls
It doesn't pop apart, I guess that's what you're getting at. Do want to make sure that the armature is long enough that it stays in place in the limbs and not creep back. I hope that helps.
HAVINGUON Thank you! That’s exactly what I was wondering. Sorry I have a lot of trouble wording things
What do you do if you accidentally pull a piece of the armature off? How do you reattach it?
I heat up the armature joints in order to pop them back together. The plastic is very stiff when cold but when heated it's softer. Can hold end joints over open flame (not too close) of the stove to heat them or use a heat gun maybe a hair dryer although I never tried with a hair dryer.
Great tutorial Yvonne thanks for sharing xoxo
You're so sweet, thanks for coming to see Tess' surgery.
where didyou get the armature?
How did you snap the pieces back together it's really hard to snap back together when it breaks off
Heat, have to heat up the joints.
Which size armature was used?
Thank you so much! Does this help her to stand?
Well I have armature in my awake toddle and it helps her stand.
HAVINGUON ok thank you so much for your reply!
I would love to get a kit
You are very brave. I have order one of those and end up selling it back for not have the energy to open my doll and re do it. It’s that the standing Tibby kit body
Sorry, I'm not next door I'd help you with that. It isn't that difficult. Putting the armature into the body slip was very much like dressing a hanger.

Dolls by Sandie carries many different sizes.
HAVINGUON thank you !!!! 😘
What are the white things called ?
Thanks for sharing this,that's really great,but I wouldn't dare try it,xxhugs
I understand.
Cool video, I didn't know you could do that.
Thanks, yes. They have different size armatures for different size dolls, but I didn't know that until I custom made mine.
What are the white stuff called
Great video.
Thank you, Tess did great.
Your welcome
